We describe three young males--8.8, 9.4 and 10.4 years old--who were diagnosed with precocious, early and fast puberty associated with type I Chiari malformation. In patients 2 and 3, the reason for diagnostic management recommendation was a rapid progression of pubertal development over ...

Fabry disease is reported to affect the rate of physical growth and onset of puberty in boys.13 However, in the Fabry Registry, three male infants (ages 0 to <2 years) and six in early childhood (ages 2 to <5 years) were, on average, between the 40th and 50th percentiles for height...
Adrenal cortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignant tumor in children. Patients typically present with clinical signs related to hormone hypersecretion. Virilization due to testosterone secretion affects approximately 90% of patients and causes precocious puberty in males. Elevated glucocorticoid or estro...
as the rate of neurogenesis sharply declines after puberty. However, neurogenesis continues throughout adulthood in the dentate gyrus (DG) region of the hippocampus [74,75,76], suggesting that the sensitive period of development in the hippocampus is an extended process that may make this region ...
The aim of the present study was to investigate body size estimation in a nonclinical sample of adolescents in early puberty. Specifically, we wanted to investigate the accuracy of self-perceived body size in relation to gender and subclinical eating problems. We predicted that judgement biases in...

In children the diagnosis of osteoporosis is more complex and BMD measurement by DXA is significantly impacted by the patient’s height and timing of pubertal development. Fractures are also common in childhood, especially around the time of rapid growth prior and during puberty, and one needs to...

particularly infemale mice. The researchers did not examine in this study whether males also experienced early onset puberty, but they did confirm that male mice exposed to arsenic in utero also displayed weight gain as they aged. Both the low and high doses ofarsenicresulted in weight gain. ...
